Or, you could hop on the 'guzi and run down to the supermarket to buy a
nice, thick steak.



My preference ;-)

Thick pork chop, better.



I go along with that. Not overcooked though. Too often chops are
overcooked and dried out.

The loin has little fat anyway. I think it should be cooked with a
little pink left in the middle. Trichinosis in store-bought pork is
pretty rare these days.



I saw a show on TV recently that described some of the work being done to
modify the DNA of pigs raised for consumption. The pigs are much more
lean with high levels of omega-3 fatty acids similar to that found in some fish.

A couple years ago, the pigs were even leaner. I understand they have gone
back to a fatter pig, as people did not like the dry meat.
